The only intention of the author seems to be to impress the "official" interpretation - i.e. from a Hindu traditionalist viewpoint - on the readers. He keeps on attacking novels based on and criticisms of the Mahabharata wherever it does not agree with this interpretation. Losing interest fast.

This massive tome analysing the Indian epic Mahabharata seems coloured by the author's deeply religious outlook. He is hell-bent on whitewashing the "heroes" and maligning the "villains". For an epic which makes very few value judgements, a more nuanced evaluation might have been better - but maybe that's just the atheist liberal in me, coming to the fore.
